Artist History This five piece out of Madison, WI has been sharpening their sound for five years onthe depth of turn-of-the-century idealism, a strong belief in the power of positive energy,and an infatuation for what the future of sound will become. The 90s have seen theemergence of electronic diversity with an enthusiasm for danceable grooves and freshsounds. Plastic resonates to this pulse, utilizing sampling and techno sensibility, whilekeeping their feet planted firmly in the historical relevance of psychedelic rock.
